2024 MITSUBISHI TRITON PRICING, EVS CAN’T BE CHARGED & INDIAN ROADS | THE CAREXPERT PODCAST

EV Channels Review

The CarExpert Podcast, broadcasting live from India, covers significant news including the pricing of the 2024 Mitsubishi Triton and a concerning ban on EV charging at a Melbourne hospital. The Triton's pricing is deemed surprisingly competitive, slotting between Chinese entrants and established rivals like the Ranger and Hilux, offering strong value with its new twin-turbo engine, improved tech, and a unique 10-year warranty. While styling is subjective, its value proposition is highlighted. The podcast also discusses the controversial ban on EV charging at Monash Health, attributing it to hysteria surrounding lithium-ion battery fires, particularly from e-bikes, rather than a widespread issue with EVs themselves. The hosts emphasize the need for education and proper solutions over outright bans. Finally, a drag race comparison between the MG4 XPower and BMW i7 M70 reveals the MG's impressive straight-line speed for its price, though its limited range and handling quirks are noted, while the i7's performance is acknowledged as exceptional for its weight and luxury class.
